Punky Bruster

So we all know that plaid is 'in' now a days so I decided to do a little post on how much I <3 it right now also. I guess I'm conforming to the fashion world but not where I live because apparently nobody in my part of suburbia dresses like me. I supposedly belong in New York which is great because I LOVE NEW YORK! But anyway sorry I haven't been keeping up with my blog lately I've just been working longgg ass hours at work and my son is getting terribly exhausting! Love you all !


tops: vest- my dads old button up that I cut up, tshirt- from Philippines, tank- joyce leslie; pants: cotton pants joyce leslie; shoes: forever21 kix; jewlery: forever21 & vintage


top: vintage plaid button up; scarf: joyce leslie; sunglasses- forever21; hat: joyce leslie

Please forgive my poor quality pictures! I'm on my way to getting my own Canon XSi so bear with me. Happy Fashion!

Lava Gina

There comes a time in a person's life where you feel like your just getting old, and I guess that's how you feel when you turn 30! Me and a whole bunch of cousins and friends celebrated my cousin Charleen's 30th birthday on Sunday at Lava Gina in NYC. Not only do I absolutely LOVE the city but I LOVE partying in the city! Here's a glimpse of the night, showing what I wore & the party.

So I'm sure you guys heard of the Jollibee that opened in Woodside, NY and I'm just dieing to gooo !! It so reminds me of the homeland and how much I love it there. Can't wait to go have some and I can't wait to go back to the Philippines in June! Jollibee and Baby here I come!

City Shine

Last night me and a whole bunch of friends/cousins went to Lucky Cheng's in NYC to celebrate my cousin Paul's 22nd birthday. It was absolutely AMAZING and well worth the $32/person to eat. Entertainment was crazy fun with a whole bunch of wild drags dancing and making fun all over the place! I've never been to a place like that before and it was one of the most memorable nights of the year so far! Thanks to everyone who made the night so freakin' exciting and thanks to the alcohol that infused me with extra happiness! Here's a sneak peak of the night.








You can pretty much imagine the rest.

On another note, today is Valentine's Day and I'm a bit saddened that my fiancee is on the other side of the world right now so we can't spend this day together. However, it's all good because going to the city always makes me feel better no matter how bad of a mood I'm in. NYC today again! <3 it.

Pain

So by now I'm sure all of you have heard about the Rhianna/Chris Brown fight, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who is devastated by this. Not only have I been in those shoes before, but no woman deserves to ever be hit by anyone ever, especially by a man. I thought I'd just make a quick post in honor of everyone who supports Rhianna and her will to be a strong woman. We got your back RhiRhi!









I hope all is not as it seems, but regardless we woman have to stand up and never back down to anyone. Peace and Love.

Spring Is Calling

I was browsing through the Spring Summer 09' Marc by Marc Jacobs collection and I decided to share with you all my two favorite looks/upcoming trends from this particular line. First is the playsuit which seems to be making a huge come back from back in the good ol' days. It's retro vibe brings back memories of when my mom had no idea how to dress, but this one by Marc Jacobs brings a more modern, girly, and fun twist. And I'm clearly loving the idea of layered belts.


Skyway multi Selma stripe mix playsuit, Periwinkle oxford stripe voile shirt, Ceylon rose multi paisley park patchwork belt, Indigo multi pocket belt

Second is the jacket and dress combo. This I know is going to be a real popular trend this coming spring/summer season simply because adding the right jacket to the right dress just kicks the chic notch up a whole lot. Add a perfect pair of heels/sandals and your good to go! This one is my favorite look.


SF wash ashbourne denim jacket, Stormy grey multi crosstown stripe print dress

Could the winter be departing any slower?!

Just be a girl

I personally love love love Luca Luca because it plays to my ultra girly side rather than my usual hard edge. Luca Luca's Spring `09 ready to wear collection is UHmazing beautiful. Whether its the simplicity in the silhouettes with a little kick or the cohesiveness in the color palette that makes the collection totally spring ready, I'm loving everything about it! Luca Luca is one of my favorite fashion lines. Here's an obsessive dose..




There's snow outside, but who said we couldn't plan ahead!

Paying Homage

I just thought I'd dedicate a little post to Philippine Fashion just because I'm missing the P.I. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO baddddddd. I can't wait to see everyone I love so so dearly this summer! Turns out their fashion is so much more forward and futuristic than I had anticipated. FILIPINOOOO AYYYY! How's this for asian aspiration? Let's take it to the catwalk.






This just makes me want to live there. Excuse me while I contemplate. =]

Ride On

The biker look has to be one of my favorite trends for this fall/winter season. The whole high fashion with a rocker edge is totally where my mind is at right now. Leather is definetely in bringing back the 90's grunge look with the leather jackets and leather/fauxleather pants and plaid. Let's take advantage and bring out our inner bad asses in us and showcase your personal edgyness! Here's a few of my favorite looks that inspire me to go kick some serious butt.



Obsess Yourself:


(Jacket- Funnel Neck Bomber from Topshop.com; Top- Checker Print Ruffle Top from GoJane.com; Sunglasses- Forever21.com; Shoes- Luichiny Nelly Peep Toe Ankle Boot from DSW.com; Handbag- Rampage Rivington Studded Hobo from DSW.com; Pant- Faux Leather Skinny Pant from Forever21.com)

What's your opinion the come backs of the 90's? I'm clearly obsessed with it.

Back in business !

Now I know I haven't blogged in a while but I've got myself together now and I'm ready for action! Ok so lately its been almost getting out of hand with this whole shoe buying addiction. I've so far this week I bought 4 pairs of shoes and its only Thursday! But thats okay though a girl can't ever have enough right? I'm sure you all understand. Here's a few shots of a few pairs i just recently purchased.

(top left; black hightop sneakers- forever21.com, bottom; studded heel boot- gojane.com & premiere platform pumps- forever21.com, top right; velvet caged booties- gojane.com)

Although I'm a major shoe girl I'm not the one thats going to go out to spend $300 on a pair of shoes especially when I have another mouth to feed, but I'll definetely go out of my way to find the perfect pair of shoes in my budget area. Gojane.com must be made for me LOL.

Obsession of the day:


Aren't these just sooo cute?! These Ricarda Platform Stilettos can be found on Forever21.com. Enjoy!
